Hey Guys I picked up this machine fairly cheap but needing replacement rollers. I have done a lot of research on the web so far & the best I can determine is there is 3-models. I believe mine is the plane 2030 Type 1. Anybody know. Also I need a manual.

If you look at the plane bearings, you will notice that the hole the roller shaft fits through is drilled slightly off center. That allows a very slight adjustment to position, and both should be oriented the same way to keep them parallel. Other than that, there isn't much you need to do regarding the rollers besides keep them clean.
